Product Overview

BFP® 74K No Citric Acid is an innovative emulsifier additive developed by PATCO without the use of citric acid and is certified halal and kosher. It is recommended for a wide range of food applications across multiple product categories, such as margarine, peanut butter, frozen desserts, caramel, nougat, and fudge. This food emulsifier is derived from fully hydrogenated soybean oil and has a monoglyceride content of 42% to enhance emulsification, improve stability, and prevent phase separation in various food systems. It effectively works to deliver improved texture, mouthfeel, and consistent quality.
